On the Sight of Angels

Arts & Literature

“From its early invitation to ‘step into this / place where God is never / indifferent to the movement / of life’ through its later invitation to ‘look / for the corners visited by / radiant goodness,’ On the Sight of Angels proves that Harold Recinos is alert to the messengers of God, and also ‘unafraid to gather whatever / glitters in a world in need of / repair.’”

Wading in the River

Arts & Literature

“Against the worship, so prevalent in these violent times, of a God who establishes borders, the One who drives away our enemies in fear before us, Harold J. Recinos offers in Wading in the River a sounder theology, in praise of ‘a God who crosses borders’ and ‘the One who will gather us / in the dark, give life to the dead / and wipe away tears from the faces / of the frightened.’”
